On wikipedia, there are tons of bitcoin forks that are listed and already happened.


We all know bitcoin cash and gold and many heard of bitcoin diamond.  First off, i assume most people only claimed bitcoin cash and gold right?  Thus diamond and the others they did not?  Here is what is amazing.  There were forks like united bitcoin and superbitcoin.  Then there is one that is segwig2 etc.  Most coins you get 1 for 1 for every bitcoin that you have.  But bitcoin diamond, you get 10 for every btc you have.


United bitcoin and superbitcoin are over 250 dollars each.  Bitcoin diamond is 40 dollars each or so but you get 10 for every 1 so that means 400 dollars for every BTC you have?  Segwig is close to 1000 dollars.  Then there are other coins that are forked that are on the list that i didn't even mentioned yet.  So if someone had say 2 BTC, that mean they are getting 500 dollars worth of unitedbitcoin and superbitcoin each.  800 dollars worth of bitcoin diamond each.  Then when they had the bitcoin cash and gold... they got more money depending on whether they sold it at the lower price or wait and btc cash went up.  And now segwig is close to 1000 dollars each.  So basically this is free money?  Or it isn't because if there were no forks, then btc price goes higher?


I mean imagine someone that had 5 or more BTC then.  I mean aren't they making a lot of money from owning btc?  I mean if you own 5 btc, isn't that like at least 5000 dollars or more assuming you get it and then sell it immediately?  Then there are even more of those other bitcoin forks that i didn't mentioned?


If there are this many forks, why would anyone even sell btc then because this is essentially free money right?
